Shotocup is the brainchild of Edmond Johnson and Kyoshi Arnold E. Allen, founded in 2019 with the vision to elevate and promote the sport of Karate in Bermuda. They achieved this by creating the island's first semi-professional domestic Karate league, the Shotocup Coral league, featuring over 100 top Karateka from 10 Dojos in Bermuda.

shotocup events?
Shotocup events offer Karate and Taekwondo athletes a powerful platform to grow and shine, combining exposure, elite competition, a safe and engaging atmosphere, and a commitment to core values.
These events allow martial artists to showcase their skills before a wide audience drawn to Shotocup’s reputation as a premier brand in the combat arts community. Competitors face some of Bermuda’s top practitioners, giving them the chance to test themselves, refine their abilities, and measure their progress against high‑caliber opponents.
Shotocup also prioritizes a well‑organized, safe, and entertaining environment, ensuring that both participants and spectators enjoy a professional and energizing experience.
Underpinning it all are Shotocup’s core values of fairness, competency, and growth, which guarantee a level playing field, support the development of skill and knowledge, and encourage continuous improvement for every athlete who steps onto the mat.
